JOBST Roll-On Adhesive Body Fixative 2 fl oz

“It Stays” can help you make the best of a lousy situation …
I developed lymphedema from just below my knees to my feet in both legs, as the result of injuries sustained in an auto accident. This condition is not fun, to say the least – and having to worry about sagging “garments” sliding down one’s shins is just one more PIA aspect of lymphedema that is uncomfortable, adds to the “self-conscious” factor of this condition, and negates the medical effectiveness of the garments.After muscling through three-plus months of thrice-a-week decongestion therapy and twice daily compression pump sessions, and having my legs wrapped in multiple layers of bandages and foam rubber 24/7 for the same amount of time, I was so excited to finally be out of the wrapping phase and into my garments. However, I quickly discovered that even custom garments such as I have start to slide South eventually. (Okay, it’s not a huge deal in the grand scheme of medicine, but it’s very frustrating and it precludes the stockings from doing what they’re designed to do!) When I mentioned this issue, my wonderful OT at the lymphedema clinic where I had treatment recommended “It Stays” Body Adhesive.This stuff is great! My stockings definitely stay in place with a quick application of the adhesive. I just take a quick swipe all the way around my leg right below where the silicone band of the stockings hits, and then pat the stocking in place. The rollerball applicator works very well; there’s no mess at all (your fingers never come into contact with the adhesive and it doesn’t run or “glop up”), and the adhesive dries quickly (but not so quickly that I don’t have time to get the stocking in place). I haven’t experienced any problems with the bottle leaking that were reported by some of the previous reviewers – whether that’s just luck or the company has fixed the bottle I have no idea. I have sensitive skin, and I haven’t had any issues in that regard, either. The adhesive is easily removed with water and soap, and has not stained any of my clothing orI had a lot of problems with the “toeless” lymphedema stockings sliding up my foot this summer; next year I plan to use the It Stays adhesive to see if I can properly anchor the stockings to each foot right below the base of my toes. Based on how well it works to hold the top band in place, I have high hopes that it will serve me well in this capacity, too. Knowing that I’ll likely be able to wear sandals and flip flops next summer because I’ll be able to make the toeless stockings “work” makes me happy!I purchased a single bottle this time to try it out; next time I will probably purchase the three bottle box. A single two-ounce bottle will be depleted relatively quickly – my estimate at this point is that it will last maybe a three months. My purchase was through Prime, and – as always – I received the product in just a couple of days.Look ,,, lymphedema can be inconvenient, painful, ugly, and just an overall PIA. As of now, there’s no non-invasive fix for it, and even the surgical fixes are not guaranteed to work. “It Sticks” isn’t a miracle product – you will still have a chronic condition. But any product that can help make life more pleasant and a little easer to navigate is definitely a good thing!

If you wear support hose, you most likely need this, and it works!
Since my early thirties I have been ordered to wear thigh length support hose, thanks to genes from my father’s side of the family (he always said I was not his child, so not even sure I can blame him for it…). Anyway, I may or may not have followed doctors orders to the letter, but now that I am well into middle age years, I really do have to wear the bleeping things most of the time. I guess as I get older I will have to wear them 24/7. With shorts it would be the epitome of style.Regardless, the silicone dots that are now on support hose really to not do a good job staying in place. At least on my Sasquatch like thighs. So enter this stuff, which remarkably works as advertised. First I stretch up the hose to their full, lovely length on my thighs,, then roll the silicone nub region and about 1-2” of fabric down, and apply the roll on to the skin that will be under fabric. Then roll the hose back up over the glue area. I learned the fabric portion seems to stick better to the glue than the silicone nubs and tends to not to irritate my skin as much as the silicone + glue portion. It also helps prevent glue getting in underwear, which are added after the hose. The stuff holds quite well for 10 hour days of constant up and down movement.It washes off easily with water and thus far I have not had a reaction to the glue ingredients, other than some redness which I assume is due to the hairs getting pulled. It sure beats the support hose from 20 years ago that left a hairless ring around the thigh (plus I wore bike shorts that did the same thing, resulting in two rings of no hair!).One thing I have noted is that bottles will leak if they are not completely sealed and end up on their side (like when traveling). I sometimes wash the cap and threads of the bottle to help with this.Recommended. Now if they could offer some support hose with a little more whimsy to them. Like designs in the fabric of tools, dogs, bikes, etc.

Absolute must have for wig wearers, this little roll on bottle works a treat, store upside down and it will always roll perfectly.Lasts all day and wipes of with water. FantasticCustomer service is fantastic, highly recommend for service and product

Muy económico. Aunque la espera es larga si vale la pena

What a game changer!!As a bigger girl, crop tops and tank tops don’t want to stay up, and skirts don’t want to stay down.Not anymore!! I used this yesterday to help keep my romper up and in place. That sicker didn’t move all day! AND , I had to pull the fabric away to pull down the romper to use the restroom.. I was able to stick it right back on and it didn’t budge until I took it off that night. Over 12 hours of wear!!Highly recommended !All the stars!!
